For those of you who like to swim or simply like being in water, you might be happy to learn that there’s a waterproof USB flash drive with 8 gigabytes of memory and according to one review:
It is fast, cheap, and has lots of storage. I accidentally sent it through the washing machine and it still works just as good. It can be a little bulky to get into crowded USB areas, but other than that no complaints.

Even if you don’t win, you might be surprised to learn that you can make your own giant LED lamp to replace a flourescent lamp in your garage. This is great since LEDs are way more efficient plus they are super-brighter too.
To power it up, connect a 12V 1A power supply to the lamp ensuring that polarity is correct. You will be amazing by the bright white light that comes from this tube.
Looking for that perfect iPhone stand that will stand upright so you can display your apps while you work and charge your phone? Well, here’s a really really cool looking iPhone Charger/Stand from TodBot with design files. I have to say it’s a piece of art.
While I am waiting for my cellphone signal booster to arrive, (which also works on broadband cards) I figured out a really simple method that actually gets you better broadband signal in your car.

Well, I digged a bit further with my Palm Pre GoogleMaps GPS tracking app and made a new app that will track your Palm Pre’s GPS location via Twitter.

Over this weekend, I’ve cooked up some really great Palm Pre hacks, one of which shows you how to setup a website on your Palm Pre and track your phone via GoogleMaps GPS. This means that if you lose your phone or someone steals it, you will know exactly where it is.
You know, I haven’t had this much “hacking” fun since I first started this site. I just figured out how to install a WordPress blog on my Palm Pre! It runs really well btw but I can’t tell you the domain name since Sprint might cancel my contract if too many people start accessing it.
Anyways, I’ve written a detailed DIY guide over at Palm Pre Hacks Blog, make sure to check it out if you plan on taking your website with you at all times.
P.S. I am sure there will be one day technology gets so good that my blog will run on a cellphone.

Here’s a write-up I did over at my new Palm Pre Hacks blog on how to SSH into a Palm Pre. Check it out if you got a Palm Pre and ahead of the curve. 🙂

Here’s a hands-on review of the USB Mini Can Humidifier Ionizer from BudgetGadgets.com. It’s a really cool little device as the Can Ionizer will purify the air around your office while providing a purified, ionized mist. I really like it a lot since I smoke in my kitchen, this should help clean up the air quite a bit while I do gadget reviews and whatnot. (Thanks Meka for the free sample!)
